If there are 150 different active communities with a significant amount of  
members who do not speak English, then they should all have a place where  
they can discuss policy matters in their language, with a localized UI,  
and without interference in many other languages which they don't speak.

See my response to Daniel for how this can be achieved within a single  
installation, and how this principle could be applied to Wikipedia,  
Wikibooks, Wikisource etc. as well. Either way, we should acknowledge the  
need for language-level filtering, and make it a priority to implement  
this. That would be a good test case for a bounty system.
